Abstract
This presentation discusses the role of a midwife and debates whether she practises as an expert,a specialist or obstetric nurse. Essential midwifery practice focuses on autonomy, normality, holistic care, woman centredness and respecting differences. 'Every Midwife Matters', the challenges and barriers to midwifery care in the UK in the 21st century are explored and debated.
